the workaround for bug 22018
Installing DMusic helps?!? The explanation that comes to mind is that the app then either plays music or silence while in the menus, hence keeping the mixer up and running, so the sound effects are mixed in.
pcm_set_periods_near(4)
set_buffer_time_near or _size_near has the same effect, 3763 frames is what ALSA insists upon using. That is ~4x 1024 * 44100/48000.
